LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes presents Arte para la gente: The Collected Works of Margaret Garcia, a retrospective exhibition with more than 75 artworks by pre-eminent Chicana artist Margaret Garcia. This traveling exhibition organized by the Museum of Ventura County is curated by Anna Bermudez, Curator of Inclusion and Cultural Initiatives, and features Garcia’s vast body of work that captures and encapsulates her culture, family, community, and urban life in Los Angeles and beyond. As a leader in the Los Angeles Chicana/o Art Movement for the past five decades, Margaret Garcia has championed and advocated for women, community, and individuals who are marginalized by society. By revering the people, neighborhoods, and local landmarks of her pueblo through her colorful portraits and landscapes, Garcia celebrates the subjects that have inspired her art and the creation of its ever-evolving community.
